Red Light Running in Iowa, Jaunary 2001

Abstract

Crashes related to red light running account for more than 800 deaths and thousands
of injuries each year in the United States. Many states and local jurisdictions
have undertaken studies and enacted programs in reaction to this major transportation
safety concern. This research study examined the scope of this phenomenon in
Iowa, reviewed red light running reduction studies and programs nationwide, and
proposed countermeasures to address significant violation problems.
